Coloured bath resurfacing in Mountain Ash East, done in place
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We work on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and people most often call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Repairing versus replacing in Mountain Ash East
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Mountain Ash East. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Take a look at our full price list and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- One picture of the whole suite
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
For a price in Mountain Ash East, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
The process
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take one to two days for a full suite, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

When we would advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- The inside of a toilet bowl, unless we’ve agreed it will last
- Items cracked right through
- Fittings and taps (these are masked, not recoloured)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Mountain Ash East?
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
What your quote should include
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Who will actually do the work
- How the room is protected while they work
Landlords, agents and businesses in Mountain Ash East
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Mountain Ash East use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Mountain Ash East: your questions answered
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you cover the whole of Rhondda Cynon Taff?
The entire UK, including all of Rhondda Cynon Taff. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
